State Of Bihar And Ors vs Krishna Paswan And Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the appointment and salary of untrained Assistant Teachers under the Bihar Education Service. The Court emphasized that the respondents, having been appointed as untrained teachers, were entitled to the untrained scale of pay without the necessity of producing training certificates, as per the earlier judgment in LPA No. 102/1995. The Court ruled that the termination of their services by the District Establishment Committee was invalid and directed the payment of dues for the period they performed their duties, reinforcing the principle that appointments must adhere to the terms specified in the appointment letters.
